Hurricane Sandy has turned out to be one of the most catastrophic storms in New York City's memory, with the city's primary power provider Con Edison declaring it "the largest storm-related outage in our history", unprecedented damages heaped on public transportation, and at least 16 lives ended. In a stroke of luck, the music community seems to have bypassed the worst. We checked back in with 285 Kent, Glasslands, Shea Stadium, Le Poisson Rouge, Cake Shop, Bowery Presents, and more.
